The rooms are a little small for me, small room... - Review of Courtyard by Marriott San Antonio Airport / North Star Mall

The hotel is OK, not what I expected from Marriott. The rooms are a little small for me, small room, small bath. NO free breakfast. There is a Bistro inside with Starbucks coffee, it you want to eat something there. When we arrived we noticed a lot cars and noise, because the Hotel is behind some Restaurants and one of them has live music, it was friday night , so maybe that was the reason. I think there are better options, like the Hyatt Place San Antonio Airport/Quarry Market, they also have Starbucks coffee and a complementary hot breakfast dayly, the rooms are larger and naicer.

Thank you for taking the time to review your recent stay with us. While Courtyard by Marriott does not provide a complimentary breakfast, our Bistro offers a wide variety of breakfast options. These range from hearty traditional items such as bacon and eggs cooked to order to lighter fare including hot breakfast sandwiches prepared with egg whites, low fat cheeses and lean Canadian bacon.

We are conveniently located near restaurants, some of which provide live music on weekend nights. This can sometimes create a lively atmosphere. We offer guests who prefer quieter surroundings rooms facing away from the restaurants.

I hope that we have the opportunity to serve you again on your next visit to San Antonio.

This is a great property. Newly renovated Courtyard and right near SAT Airport. The hotel does have some access issues, but that is to be expected around major highways and busy airport roads. The hotel is behind some other restaurant, but the hotel again is great along with the staff.

What a great hotel! The attention to customer service was unsurpassed even in the best hotels. A call the night before check out to see if i was satisfied. The Bistro is awesome with its genuine Starbucks coffee and its delicious flatbread pizza! Great wine too. It will be my Go To hotel when doing business in SA!

Hotel is fine. Not bad but not good either. Front desk staff is very friendly and helpful. Rooms fine but a bit dated. Needs renovation. Everything such as towels, carpet, etc are dated and not particularly nice.

This hotel has a good location to the airport, one of SA's finest shopping malls, many nearby restaurants, easy access to other attractions, and centrally located. Bring a pillow though, their pillows are small! In fact ALL Courtyard hotel pillows are small. However, this particular hotel has a lot of positives if your willing to overlook the rough edges from the recent remodel. It just lacks a little contractor oversight. Overall, I'm still a Marriott fan and this hotel will not disappoint.

I was impressed with the size of the room we got, I am pretty sure it was a standard size room. The front desk staff were super polite and very welcoming, both at check in and at check out.

We stayed on points and they gave us some extras, a small bag of chips, some breakfast bars, a coupon for another free snack and a coupon for free breakfast. The breakfast was good and they have a nice area to eat in the lobby.

The room was big and did appear to have some age to it, but I thought it was clean. The bed was very uncomfortable, not a pillow top and the pillows on the king size bed were very small not king size pillows. The sheets were mostly polyester but this seems to be not out of the ordinary when compared to similar hotels. I did hear outside noise from the highway, because it's right there, this is not a fault of the hotel, it's just what you get in this area of town. I put my earplugs in and was not bothered by the sound. The curtains were great in the room, it made the room super dark, this is something that I really appreciated.

I would think because of of the extra space in this hotel room it would be good for family travel as your kids would have some room for play.

Room Tip: Ask for a room that faces away from the highway, there might be less noise on that side.
